The United States of Printer883 is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its infamous sell-swords, aversion to nipples, and prohibition of alcohol. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.33 billion Printer883ians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 76.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Printer883ian economy, worth 794 trillion cards a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 149,100 cards, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.
A government program is underway to revitalize Printer883's beaches, universities are populated by the spawn of the upper classes, Printer883ian soldiers know how to create single mothers in more ways than one, and commuters and their desktops both bemoan their hard drives. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Printer883's national animal is the legendary, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Printer883 is ranked 285,033rd in the world and 2,578th in Two for Highest Food Quality, scoring 4.88 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
